I like to see what's under Peters sleeve too Chris! ...gloss black dial for me only cuz we already gots the brown B-Mos....I'm even thinking about swapping my grey dial SS eta Shark Hunter into the bronze case...but I think the gloss black dial w/black bezel will be fine with some of my nice black straps and you know it will be well made and that's a lot of bronze to be used on this one for sure! |

I've seen pics of the grey dial Shark Hunter from you (and I think Tony too)...that is a gorgeous looker of a dial color. I'm torn between the Black and Brown dials, but it would definitely be one of those for me. |

I ordered a black dial, as soon at it hit Peter's site... Learned about it ahead of time, from Oceanic Time. It's problematic, being a "junkie." Last edited on Wed Jan 26th, 2011 08:06 pm by edwardschmedward |

As tempting as it is I'd rather wait(hope) to find the Bronze moray at some point :) |

I think I remember you having a Shark Diver come in, but go out as fast as it arrived noting that is just didn't click with you as far as fit on the wrist. Given that this is a Bronze case, I expect that it will be living on a great rubber or leather strap...maybe give a Zulu a try too (which can affect the fit), but we will just have to see. I have read so many great things about the Helson Shark Diver, and I think it is going to be killer in the Brushed Bronze UNI 5275 (The Bronze Moray is great with its Blasted Bronze finish, and I can't wait to check out the Brushed Bronze finish of the Helson). Peter at Helson has been fantastic to work with too!!! No doubt, the Bronze Moray is a great piece...if a rare one pops up on the preowned market...I will be sure to let you know buddy! |

I can't wait to see your pics Chris...they will keep me content until mine arrives! ...I was wondering what everyone would think about putting one of the new Helson bracelets in PVD on the gloss black dial/matte black bezel version. |

I'm trying to picture the PVD Helson bracelet on the Bronze watch head...and it just might work with your black dial and bezel (hmmm...may require someone with some photoshop skills to work a little magic and bring this idea to us visually). I think it might work.... I've been actively thinking about combos with this one too...I will have to rely on what is provided out of the box, or what I have already on hand initially...so we will see how it goes.
